President Bidenā€™sĀ reelection campaign is pouncing on former President Trumpā€™s fundraising numbers, dubbing its political rival ā€œBroke Donā€ on Thursday.

ā€œNot a Winning Campaign: Broke Don Hides in Basement,ā€ the campaign wrote in an email. ā€œTrump canā€™t raise money, isnā€™t campaigning, and is letting convicts and conspiracy theorists run his campaign.ā€

Election filings made public Wednesday showed Trumpā€™s 2024 campaignĀ brought in $10.9 millionĀ last month, while his joint fundraising committee raised nearly $11 million. It has about $42 million in cash on hand.

Meanwhile, Bidenā€™s campaign operationĀ raised roughly $53 millionĀ in February, which gave it $155 million in cash on hand entering March.

    This feels like exactly the sort of thing that will cause Trump to lose his shit.

        Iā€™d love to see it. The amount of butthurt he, as well as many of his sympathizers, had when the feds showed up to - checks notes - retrieve classified documents that he stole - was epic and I cannot imagine how much weeping and wailing there will be if tiny d starts getting assets seized.

          Calling out now: someone is going to get arrested for showing up at one of the properties with a gun to ā€œdefend it.ā€

          Trump will do nothing to de-escalate the situation, (will probably make it worse) and then will distance himself from it when the guy gets shot.

            Thatā€™s a fair point. Iā€™ve seen how concerned the rabid right wing was for property (over life) during the BLM protests; imagine if that property was attached to tiny d.
